Breaking Traditions. The Shifter And The Mage. By Madilynn Dale.
A lovely wholesome story. Breaking Traditions is about two people (A Shifter and a Mage) from different walks of life, who society doesn’t want together, with a little bit of magic thrown into the mix., however they have a different perspective. I think the characters are very relatable and people you feel like you would enjoy being around in real life. Madilynn has done a fantastic job with this book I look forward to reading more of her work.

This is book 2 in the Rebecca Steele series. It follows on with Becky’s story and her career. I didn’t read the first book but this book was easy to get into and follow that I didn’t feel I missed anything by not reading the first book.
Its a lovely romance set in Nashville. The landscapes of country music and working and living on a ranch really bring the characters and their lives to life. The characters are really likeable and you cant help wanting them to succeed.

Center of Gravity: A Standalone Friends-To-Lovers Sport Romance by Isabella Cassazza Five Stars
Center of Gravity: A Standalone Friends-To-Lovers Sport Romance is the second book in the Ice Tigers Hockey series by Isabella Cassazza. This is the first book I have read by Ms. Cassazza,but definitely won’t be the last. This book can be read as a standalone, but the writing was wonderful and I look forward to reading the first book. Matt and Emilia have fantastic chemistry, but need help on relationship and trust issues. Hockey romances are one of my favorite genres, and this book is the best I have read this year. I look forward to reading more from Ms. Cassazza.

Center of Gravity is the 2nd of 3 books in the Ice Tigers Hockey Romance series by Isabella Cassazza. It is the first I have read, but it can be enjoyed as a stand alone novel. I really loved it, and plan to go back and read book 1 next, then the 3rd book. The story is a romance, but it is clean, with only a couple scenes approaching the pg 13 range. The characters were wonderful, even though they both annoyed me at times. It is mostly told from Emilia’s point of view, but Matt had some chapters as well. I like books written so we can understand the feelings of both main characters. Both Matt and Emilia were overly stubborn, but I loved that they put their differences aside and quickly decided to co-parent. Emilia is a strong female lead character, and while Matt is stubborn as can be, he is also a really great guy. There are a lot of supporting characters that I bet will get their own stories, and I look forward to that. I recommend this book and will definitely read more.

Drawn to Him is a sweet small town contemporary romance by Tammy Mannersly– and is my favourite of her books, so far. The story is quite captivating, with emotion, and some danger and drama thrown in which keep me avidly reading. The story is interesting and entertaining, it has a great pace, and flows really well. The characters are really well developed and so easy to like. I connected with them right away. Erica and Matt were so great together- just loved them.

The Abduction of Sarah Tarbell by Stuart Ledwith is a compelling read that will stay with you long after you have read it. Be sure to have tissues at hand because it will wreck you emotionally. It is fast paced and a short read, but it definitely packs a punch. The story is about a young woman who has a harrowing and gruelling time after her abduction in the early 1700’s and captivity by Indians. She was also sold on and lived to tell her tale of a life she never dreamed about. The way Stuart tells her story you can feel everything that she goes through as if you were the one experiencing it.
It is just like the saying, sometimes “the truth is stranger than fiction”. Not a story to be missed.

The Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conyngham is an interesting historical murder mystery set in early Scotland and I love Scotland and its history having visited there several times. And I can still remember the feel of Culloden and the resting place of many and this brought it all back. Historical fiction is not always my thing, but I occasionally don’t mind reading them. The story was a bit slow to start with and I found it hard at times to settle in but once I did finally did, I enjoyed the mystery and suspense that the story brings. Lexie is very detailed in her writing, so it was easy to imagine the world she has created. If you love a good mystery and a bit of history, then The Slaughter of Leith Hall is one to grab and read.

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened) by Isra Sravenheart is about a villainess who is a witch and very, very dark witch at that. It is a dark fairytaleish type story even as dark as the Grimm brothers. Not that this bothers me, I like dark and twisted sometimes but only if it is done right. For me the characters didn’t quite have the depth and growth I would have liked, and I found the constant reminder that our villainess was bad and had a dark soul a bit too much. I also found the story to be slow and found myself wandering whilst trying to stay focused. Just because it didn’t live up to my expectations, I have high standards, does not mean it will not for others, so please give it a go as it is an original concept.

This is my first book by M. Billiter and Kyle Thomas. I am a fan of the books that address mental illness and this one did not disappoint. I loved this book and honestly couldn’t stop reading all day! I can’t even fully explain my emotion with this book. As a mother I was bawling. As a best friend with someone who has a mental illness disorder I was gutted and felt every single word printed like a stab wound. It was beautifully written and thought out brilliantly. I absolutely recommend this book. I can’t wait for book two, I’m headed there now!

This is the second book in this series, I enjoyed it just as much as the first. If you haven’t read it then I recommend you do, you will enjoy it. This is a sweet romance story that kept me turning pages to the end. I enjoy how this author writes with heart and her attention to details make me feel as if I am right there in the story. I had no problems connecting with the characters as they brought the story to life. This is Gianna and Tyler’s story. Tyler is a new winery owner and he is determined to make his launch a success. Gianna works for the company he has hired to help with marketing. The problem comes in when they do not agree on the plan. Will they agree on more than just a new plan together? I enjoyed how their chemistry was great and how it made the story easy to read. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Peeling back layers of lies could save a masterpiece…or reveal a killer.
After a long week lobbying on Capitol Hill, all Karina Cardinal wants to do is chill with Netflix and her boyfriend, Patrick Dunne. Instead, she’s slipping her aching feet into red stilettos for his parents’ annual holiday bash.
When she accidentally interrupts Patrick’s father in his study, her embarrassment is tempered by suspicion that Martin Dunne and his dapper, secretive guest are hiding something. Maybe the painting she barely glimpses right before it disappears behind a secret panel.
An internet search raises her curiosity to full-blown alarm. If she’s right, Martin is in possession of a stolen masterpiece. Infamous because everyone close to it has turned up dead. As in Mafia-style-execution dead.
As she’s chewing over which instinct to follow—back off while she still can, or dig deeper for the truth—she crosses paths with FBI agent Mike Finnegan. An old friend and not-quite flame from her college days. When she looks into his warm, mocha eyes, she’s tempted to tell him everything.
Trouble is, she’s already being watched. And the next move she makes could destroy innocent lives…including her own.

Music and all it entails has intrigued me since I was old enough to remember. The lights, the fans, the makings of a new musical sensation.
Being an agent for a record label allows me to be involved with every aspect of the industry. Seeing artists reach their dreams and full potential makes me feel more alive than I can ever imagine.
At least it does until a beautiful brunette auditions for a spot opening for one of my bands.
The moment her sultry voice reaches my ears I know she’s perfect for my band. Then, I see her face as she sings and know she is perfect for me.

Her Blackened Soul by Isra Sravenheart was a good book, but not great to me. I expected much more from reading the synopsis, and I was just a little disappointed in what I got. It wasn’t a bad book to read, it was just very slow to me building the story up, and it read so much like an old fairytale, but it wasn’t as short as a fairytale, so it just made it seem that much more drawn out. The characters were great and it had a great storyline and plot, it just wasn’t what I expected going in to read and I guess that just threw me off a little bit. I did enjoy reading this book however, and I do want to read more from this author in the future.

I enjoyed this story. This is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her. This is a well written story that has developed details that made the story feel real. I had no problems connecting with the characters as they brought the story to life. I enjoyed being pulled into the story right from the beginning. This is a story about Joe who is a Marine. His teammate received a letter and shortly after reading the letter commits sucide. After getting hurt, he is sent home. What will happen when he runs into the person who wrote the letter? He decides to hurt them as much as he is angry about his friend. But will his plan backfire on him? He makes such a great character and is my favorite in the story. He made the story for me despite the revenge and the way he plans to get it. A great story that I highly recommend.

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series #1) by Isra Sravenheart
This is the first book that I’ve read by Isra. This was a wonderful read. This fantasy had me in the world of Lady Isra. This is the first book in The Blackened Series.
Isra, a dark witch, is learning more of her powers. She shields herself from the humans eyes so she can move about. She no longer believes in love. The quote I choose for Isra is: “No, I will not stop. I will not give my magic up. I will not surrender any power, no matter what ! But on a more humorous note, I am much better than what I used to be. I have control; I can do what I want. Like you said, you never asked for this job, so go back to your army of golden messengers and leave me be.”
Kane, a human, can see through the shield. He knows he shouldn’t seek her out, but he does. When he learns she’s not going to help him with what he wants; he knows he’s in for it. The quote I choose for Kane is: If I survive this, by God I will change my ways. I will be a better man. I will be the warrior my father wants me to be. I will be good. I will do good. But only if she doesn’t kill me first.
I highly recommend this for anyone who loves Fantasy. This will leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more.
The walls between us: A Borderland Love Story is a historical love story seen through the utter devastation of a drug war.
The story was well written and engaging until the very end, the main two characters are brilliant and the way the author goes through the different cultures and stereotypes which are still in the fore thought today.
This is not normally the type of genre I read but reading the blurb and I instantly felt drawn to this story, the story delves into the world of drug cartels and the horrendous conditions. The story is told through the two main characters who have their own beliefs and opinions which is a great insight to these people’s lives.
If you’re looking for a thought provoking story with a great emotional rollercoaster this is the story for you. I really enjoyed and was drawn in from the first word to the last.

I enjoyed this book. This is the third book in this series which can be read as a stand alone but I highly recommend reading all of them from the beginning. This is my favorite yet in this series. This is a well developed story that has characters that pulled me into the story right from the first chapter. This is an engaging story that I read in one sitting. I had no issues connecting to the characters as they brought the story to life. Neve and Micah are back in this story. Their story is full of hope and love. It does get a little dark in a few spots but the twists and turns kept me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what they would do next. There is a lot they go through in this story so I highly recommend reading it just to see. They are great characters that make a great story. This was a great rainy day read and I highly recommend it.

This is a great story and one that you need to pick up, along with a pack of tissues, I started this and finished it in one sitting, wondering when it was over what happened. I would have given it a five-star rating, but it lost a couple of points along the way, but overall, very well written and plotted. The characters were rounded well done and will have you believing in them.

Love Song: A friends-to-lovers rock and roll romantic suspense By KG Fletcher 5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Love Song: A friends-to-lovers rock and roll romantic suspense by KG Fletcher. It is a story that pulled me in from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until the final page. It is an amazing story that has me believing in true love and soul mates. I loved reading about the characters of Casey and Sam. Casey is a backup singer who is strong, intelligent, and independent. She loves her sister and her job as a backup singer on tour. When she meets Sam, she begins to hear the melody of a love song begin. Sam is a man who is an amazing drummer and has a deep attraction to Casey. These two feel a deep connection with each other. Just as their romance begins dark clouds roll in. What does the future hold for Casey and Sam? Read this book to find out. The way that this story is written I could feel the energy and chemistry between Sam and Casey. I grew to care about what happens to them with every chapter that I read. The book has both heartbreaking and heartwarming moments. My emotions went up and down the entire time I was reading it. There are also tense and suspenseful moments. Don’t miss out on a story that is sure to touch your heart, I know it did mine.

The book Deception by Victoria Saccenti is a story that I enjoyed reading. It is a book that pulled me in from the beginning and I found myself not wanting to put it down until the final page. It is a story that includes revenge and love. I loved reading about the characters of Joe and Hunter. Joe is a man who is set on revenge because of the suicide of a teammate. Hunter is his target. He starts down a carefully laid path. What would happen if in the process other emotions and feelings begin to form? Hunter is a woman who finds herself drawn to Joe. He is unlike those who have come before. What does the future hold for Joe and Hunter? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had me turning pages to find out what happens next. It is written in such a way the I felt like I was right there with the characters. I enjoyed reading about the bantering back and forth between Hunter and Joe. This book does have very steamy scenes that make the temperature in the room rise. I also enjoyed reading about Hunter’s best friend who is always there to help her. I liked that Hunter’s character is strong and intelligent. She has goals set for herself and is determined to achieve them. Don’t miss out on a story that is intriguing and entertaining. I highly recommend reading it.

The Walls Between Us by Kate McGahan a far-away four-star read. This was my first by this author, and I don’t know if it would be my last, I enjoyed the writing and most of the characters, but some left me cold. I don’t know if it was just that there was so much going on that I missed something important, but I did feel like I was wondering a lot about why, I will likely read this one again and see if I figure it out as I know reading some of the other reviews it seems like a great story. It could be that I am losing something in translation as I’m not a native as I live on an island, so the issues faced aren’t any that I come across. Don’t let my words put you off, if this sounds like an interesting story do pick it up as it is well written for the most, I do think it’s my situational knowledge that let me down.

This page turner had me riveted from the outset. I was fascinated by the setting and the details we had on each character. I was immediately invested in the story and was kept guessing as to how everything would resolve. If you like a good suspense, you must pick this up immediately!

The Slaughter of Leith Hall by Lexie Conyngham was an interesting historical read. I had some trouble getting into the story but found myself picking it up time and time again. The writing was well done and the character development felt authentic. I loved the little surprises that came up now and again. I did not see the story going in the direction that it did. While not being my normal genre to pick up and dive into this was definitely worth the read!

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart 3 Stars
This story is about a witch who gets revenge on a selfish man. It had a very fairytale vibe to it. The thing that I liked the most about the book is that the main character was a villain. Unfortunately, the characters were flat. Had they had more depth maybe I would have enjoyed it more. I found the story slow and quite repetitive. The witch constantly said how bad she was and how dark her soul was. The narrative felt like it was someone reading a story to a child.

When I first read the blurb for this story I was really intrigued, the author is new to me and whilst I will admit the cover isn’t one of the best I’ve seen I know not to take any notice of them and I am so glad I did. The story was beautifully written, the descriptive detail throughout was one of my favourite things about this book. I felt like I was really transported into the lives and worlds of these characters. The characters were well throughout and I thoroughly enjoyed reading about them. There was so much going on in the story that I couldn’t turn the pages quick enough to see what was going to happen. Even after finishing the story I was still thinking about what I had read and in my opinions it means that it was a really great read! I look forward to reading more from this author again in the future.

The Abduction of Sarah Tarbell: As Her Soul Remembers by Stuart Ledwith
This is the first book I’ve read by Ledwith and I’ve got to say be ready for tissues. Ledwith knows how to capture your attention from the first line and let’s you go at the end.
This story follows Sarah Tarbell through her abduction and that of her brothers. They travel long and far to be brought to another territory. What will happen to the three of them?
Sarah tells her story through Ledwith and it’s very captivating. Sarah recalls what happens to her and it’s an emotional ride. She doesn’t think her God talks anymore, but she learns soon that she can do it on her own. The quote I choose for Sarah is: “I must go from here as I came here. I will not love another man, ever, mark my words. If ever you find you want me, just call out my name and I will answer you.”
I highly recommend this for anyone who loves a good book. A very emotional ride, but one you’ll appreciate. The things you learn and read is hard to accept when it’s never happened to you.

This is the first book in the Blackened Series. Its a great story filled with adventure, fantasy and romance.
I loved the fairytale feel to the story and it was unique in the fact that the story is from the side of the ‘villian’ and not the hero, Prince or Princess. I loved the characters they were easy to feel attached too. The story is easy to read and keeps you hooked.
Lady Isra is a witch who over the course of time due to heartache and the attitudes of the people around her has turned into a dark witch who’s only plans is to cause death and destruction. That is until she gets told about a man seeking her out.
What the man whats and who he is she doesnt know but her immediate reaction is to get rid of him. When he arrives however her plan changes and a whole new adventure begins.

This is the first book by Conyngham that I’ve had the pleasure of reading. While it was difficult for me to get into at first it soon captured my attention.
Charlie Rob is a manservant and this story follows him through his adventures. Charlie is new to this and he doesn’t want to upset his Employer.
Charlie, follows John Leith to his hometown. There he’s met with things he’s not used to. He’s warned that it’s not like the place he comes from. The quote I choose for Charlie is: ‘Och, I’m all fingers and thumbs.’
This isn’t the first Historical Mystery that I’ve read, but it was one of my favorites. Anyone who loves a good mystery; this is a book for them. I do highly recommend this book! Lexie did an amazing job.
